old and new

I resolve to go to the Fort Worth Central PublIC lIbrary more In 2016.

When I walked into the stately downtown building on a scouting trip, my first thought was, It’s really embarrassing that I’ve never been here before. My second was, This is the perfect spot for our 10 Most Beautiful Women photo shoot. Finally, I wondered whether or not I put enough change in the parking meter.

I did not.

The library has all the same charming qualities as our 10 most beautiful finalists. It’s diverse, dynamic, educated, elegant and, of course, beautiful. In short, the building is a Fort Worth gem just like each of our finalists. Each woman is even more impressive in person than she is on paper and in images.

Just a few miles north sits another valuable gem for our city - the historic Fort Worth Stockyards. A battle has been quietly brewing regarding the future of the Stockyards, and our resident expert, FW Inc. Executive Editor Scott Nishimura, has been following every meeting, quote, debate and rendering. His account of the story, that’s very literally developing before our eyes, is as riveting as it is informative.

From one Fort Worth landmark to another, one of the highlights of this issue for me was taking a tour of the new Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena at TCU. From gleaming hallways with wall-sized photos from local photographer Brian Luenser to beautiful views every way the head turns, the team taking this and other TCU buildings to the next level is proving that change can be a very, very good thing.

Happy New Year.

I came across your contact information after reading Gail Bennison’s story about Jason Suder and wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed it. As you know, Jason writes for the newspaper in Jackson Hole, which is where I was raised and continue to spend time seasonally with

The Purple’s Court

The TCU men’s and women’s baskeTball programs made Their debUT in The new ed and rae sChollmaier arena wiTh a doUbleheader on sUnday, deC. 20. The all donor-funded, $72 million basketball home is a total renovation of the space previously known as The Daniel-Meyer Coliseum. The court, lowered approximately 4 feet for closer seating, features a Nikedesigned floor complete with frog scales and a large new Panasonic video board above center court. The Stuart Family Courtside Club overlooks Amon G. Carter Stadium and offers those with access food, drinks and a front-row view for post-game press conferences. While much of the emphasis for the Schollmaier Arena is placed on recruiting with dedicated lounge areas and totally refurbished locker rooms, Frog fans will enjoy the grand main entrance with a TCU Athletics Hall of Fame, sleek concourses and a food court with a wall of windows. TCU celebrated the opening on Dec. 15 with an official dedication ceremony. Chris Del Conte, TCU’s director of intercollegiate athletics, said, “We wanted to have the very best facility in the country, and I think we accomplished that today.”

Near SouthSiderS are buzzed about the lateSt tap houSe to opeN iN the area. Pouring Glory, located at 1001 Bryan Ave., joins the local craft beer movement and sits just a few blocks from Rahr & Sons and less than a mile from the Collective Brewing Project and the soon-to-open Hop Fusion Ale Works.

Co-owner Kevin von Ehrenfried says, “The beauty of the growlerfill concept is that we become a conduit for local breweries.”

The 2,100-square-foot space has 59 rotating taps serving craft beer and soda, wine and kombucha that can be enjoyed onsite, or patrons can take their beer to go from the growler filler stations. A display kitchen will offer house-smoked barbecue and gastro pub grub. Many of the recipes are infused with the beers they serve. There is seating for around 100 guests with a back patio to accommodate overflow.

Originally constructed in 1943, the building has undergone renovations including replacement of the roof, addition of a parking lot,

restoration of original brick and a new heating/cooling system. The west wall was replaced with two garage doors that can be opened in nicer weather. A steampunk theme features exposed brick, gears, pipes and Edison light bulbs.

Owners von Ehrenfried and Scott Glover bring more than 25 years of food industry experience to this new concept. Von Ehrenfried says, “I was at a dead end and miserable. I left a company I was with for 29 years and jumped into this.”

They say that their attention to the cuisine they serve will set them apart. “My partner and I are both chefs, so we are going to have a lot of fun with the food. The menu will be constantly evolving. We’ve got the ability to do anything,” von Ehrenfried says.

Now serving brunch on Saturday and Sunday, offerings include items such as Craft Root Beer French Toast with candied bananas, walnuts, cinnamon Sriracha maple glaze and whipped cream. Beer for breakfast or $4 mimosas round out the experience. Jennifer Casseday-Blair

tenants

the New mixed-uSe developmeNt located oN the triNity river off of uNiverSity drive, weStbeNd, will add two New teNaNtS iN early 2016. Drybar, one of the creators of the “blow dry bar” concept, will open across from Pax & Parker in a 1,809-square-foot space. This will be the first Fort Worth location for Californiabased Drybar, which opened a Tarrant County location in Grapevine in November. The salon offers $40 professional

blowouts and Drybar-branded hair care products.

CorePower Yoga will also open in WestBend in early 2016. Founded in Denver, CorePower has locations throughout the country, including three in both Austin and Dallas. The more than 4,000-square-foot CorePower Yoga studio will include climate-controlled studios, a retail boutique, showers, lockers and vanity areas in a modern, consciously-designed space.

“CorePower Yoga and

Drybar are two fresh and successful companies that fit well with the lifestyle needs we are working to meet at WestBend,” said Terry Montesi, CEO of Trademark Property Co.

Other tenants scheduled for an early 2016 opening in WestBend include Dallas-based bar and restaurant, HG Sply Co. and Tyler’s, the athletic and lifestyle retailer from East Texas. Upon completion, WestBend will offer 95,000 square feet of retail and dining, including trailside restaurant patios and views of downtown.

Brewing Business on camp Bowie

LocaL guys take the sit-andstay-awhiLe coffee shop to another LeveL.

It’s all in the name at the new Craftwork Coffee Co. on Camp Bowie Blvd.

Owners Riley Kiltz and Collin Sansom merged their combined prowess for coffee and business into a 3,300-square-foot space next door to The Original. Opening Jan. 2, one-half of the modern-meetsindustrial shop serves coffee while the other serves as a collaborative workspace.

On the coffee side of the shop, baristas brew roasts from around the country (including Dallas’ Tweed Coffee Roasters) from behind a sleek marble countertop. Customers can also order from a pour-over coffee bar at the counter. The method creates richer coffee by pouring hot water directly over and through the grounds to extract more flavor. A pastry case is stocked with creations from local Stir Crazy Baked Goods.

“We wanted to bring different per-

spectives on coffee to the people in Fort Worth,” said Sansom.

Sansom makes up the retail-minded half of the 20-something duo. The Texas State alum graduated with an accounting degree but decided it was time for new ventures after he found himself running a coffee shop out of his cubicle during an internship. So, he was the natural choice for a partner when Riley Kiltz was looking. Kiltz, a TCU grad with a background in private equity, was working from home and executive spaces when he had the idea for a spot that would combine work with community.

The aesthetics of the space is a collaboration of local talent. Studio 97W (the same team behind Magnolia’s Melt Ice Creams) designed virtually every corner with a soothing palette of navies, whites and greys on a polished concrete floor. They tapped Fort Worth upcycle experts Pallet Smart to build the desks that occupy each of the private offices on the “work” side and many of the accents on the coffee side.

An angled, open wood-slat wall merges the spaces so the sound and ambiance can flow throughout. The collaborative workspace side of the business includes 10 single and four double suites for lease. Leases and memberships, ranging from $150 to $900 a month, grant members perks including café discounts and a kitchenette stocked with wine and local beer.

Sansom and Kiltz see Craftwork as a business model that can be replicated in other areas of Fort Worth, North Texas and the country – a concept that would allow members access to work spaces wherever their business or travels might take them. For now, they will concentrate on Fort Worth and Camp Bowie Blvd.

Virtue and Vice

In the area of downtown fort worth that used be known as hell’s half acre, a new dIstIllery and coffee shop Is lookIng to brIng some lIfe to calhoun street. The aptly named Acre Distillery and Coffee opened quietly in December. Located at 1309 Calhoun St. across the street from the Convention Center, this is the first downtown distillery for Fort Worth.

During the day, the coffee bar opens early for the morning rush and will feature locally roasted Avoca Coffee and a selection of pastries, bagels and other standard coffee-shop fare. The cozy space, featuring a natural wood bar and La Marzocco espresso machine, offers abundant seating, Wi-Fi and standard electrical outlets with USB ports so smartphones, tablets and laptops can stay charged.

As the day goes on, the gears switch from virtue to vice, and the Acre serves up a wide selection of house-produced bourbon, gin, vodka, whiskey, fruit-infused moonshine and a selection of pre-Prohibition style craft cocktails. The large bar will feature Acre Distillery products exclusively; no beer or wine will be available, but owner Tony Formby says the selection of cocktails is sure to please a variety of palates.

“The Acre is for people who are looking for an interesting experience,” Formby said. Before purchasing the Acre property, Formby was a co-owner at Rahr & Sons Brewing Co.

“It’s for anybody and everybody,” head distiller JB Flowers said. Flowers, who also formerly worked at Rahr with Formby and has more than 20 years of brewing experience, said that the Acre is several weeks from full production. It will start off slowly and expand over time.

The 1920s building, with original hand-scraped pine floors and brick walls, seats more than 100 people in a cozy and welcoming 7,000-square-foot space. The L-shaped seating area wraps around the production room, separated by glass-paned French doors, giving patrons a close-up look at how their spirits are produced in the copper and stainless machines.

The Acre has no kitchen but is working to develop a limited menu for its bar, focusing on locally sourced food and vendors, said Formby. The distillery will also partner with local business for its pastry selection.

Hinting at what the future holds, Flowers says Acre’s plans to have live music and entertainment.

“We’ve been working on this for a couple years,” Flowers said. “It’s been a dream, especially for Tony.”

From tips and tricks of the industry to product recommendations and trends, Ogle and his team are experts on all things beauty. Hairstylists Stephanie Stasiak and Ashley Veach agree that low maintenance color, like a natural-looking balayage, will remain one of the top hair trends this year because it’s easy to maintain. Bold bangs and the bedhead look are also on the stylists’ radars as popular styles for 2016.

Esthetician Tamara Sharpe adds that strobing will replace contouring as one of the biggest makeup trends this year. Strobing highlights the features on your face where lights hits naturally so your skin appears dewy and well-rested.

Mandi Loya, a nail technician, says the matte look, as well as “coffin-shaped” nails are big 2016 trends pulled straight from the runways in New York.

Not to forget the guys, hairstylist Anson Veach guarantees the taper fade cut will be increasingly popular this year thanks in part to singer and style-maker Justin Timberlake.

epic trails

The 9,000-square-mile region between rochester and syracuse in upstate new york known as the Finger lakes is a stunning landscape oF scenic gorges, cascading waterfalls and glacial lakes.

Nature enthusiasts will savor the region’s variety of state parks like Watkins Glen State Park, nature preserves like Montezuma Wildlife Refuge and Finger Lakes National Forest, with more than 30 miles of interconnecting hiking trails. But there’s

more to the Finger Lakes than meandering nature trails.

In addition to spectacular scenery, Mother Nature long ago bestowed upon the Finger Lakes region the perfect combination of geology, topography and climate, producing a far different assortment of trails. And while these trails don’t require hiking boots and heavy backpacks, they do favor an adventurous palate.

The oldest and most prevalent of these trails are those made of wine. Specializing in vinifera grapes and best known for its exceptional Rieslings, the Finger Lakes region is one of the finest wine-producing regions in the world with more than 50 member wineries joining to create three distinct wine trails.

Seneca Lake Wine Trail, the largest of

the three, incorporates 35 wineries—including award-winning Fox Run and Torrey Ridge Vineyards—one distillery, two cider producers, two breweries and one meadery. In addition to fruit and grape wines, Earl Estates Winery and Meadery offers four different types of mead (honey wine), while Miles Wine Cellars serves up the spectacular Seneca Lake scenery from a renovated, and some say haunted, farmhouse-tasting room originally built in 1802.

Cayuga Lake Wine Trail, the country’s first organized and longest running wine trail, consists of 16 wineries, one cidery, one meadery and four distilleries. Setting them apart from the rest, the Cayuga wineries boast a combined total of more than 5,000 national and international

medals. Member wineries include the most scenic of Finger Lake wineries, Buttonwood Grove; Winery of the Year four years in a row, Swedish Hill Winery; and the trail’s veteran vineyard, 40-year-old Hosmer Winery.

And with a story that stretches back to 1860, the eight family-owned wineries of the Keuka Lake Wine Trail offer a rich history alongside the most diverse group

of wineries in the region. The diversity includes ice wine from Hunt Country Vineyards, Black Russian Red wine from McGregor Vineyard, and six different coolclimate Rieslings from Heron Hill Winery.

But the Finger Lakes trails are not reserved for wine aficionados alone. The Finger Lake Beer Trail, with more than 75 craft breweries, is building a forceful presence alongside the region’s wineries and brewing some unique and refreshing flavors representative of the area. Founded in 2011 and modeled after the wine trails, the Finger Lakes Beer Trail showcases distinctive microbreweries and brewpubs spanning a nearly 210-mile range from Rochester to Syracuse and south to Corning and Binghamton.

The trail offers suggested itineraries to help visitors navigate the likes of the twoman nanobrewery Aurora Ale & Lager Co., brewing “curious styles” like smoked porters and bourbon barrel-aged stouts; farm breweries like Climbing Bines Craft Ale Company, specializing in small batch, hand-crafted ales brewed on site with estate-grown hops and barley; and Genesee Brew House, with a history reaching back to one of the largest and oldest continu-

ally operating American breweries—the Genesee Brewing Company.

And just when you think it’s all grapes and hops for Finger Lakes trail-goers, the Finger Lakes Cheese Trail offers visitors a taste of the fresh, artisanal cheeses produced by the regions family farms. The trail includes 11 farms like Muranda Cheese Company, with 15 varieties of cheddar-based raw-milk cheese; 4 Tin Fish Farm, a micro goat dairy; and Sunset View Creamery, home to the annual Finger Lakes Cheese Festival.

Still, if wine, beer and cheese trails aren’t enough, the Finger Lakes Tourism Alliance is working to create a museum trail, taking advantage of the region’s abundant collection of enlightening and entertaining museums for aviation enthusiasts, New York state history buffs, and visitors attracted to the region’s contribution to women’s suffrage and the underground railroad.

So, visit the Finger Lakes for the natural beauty that abounds, but don’t linger in the backcountry for too long. Instead, set out on a journey through the region's more savory trails. Your taste buds (and your feet) will thank you.

it started With a horse

Joyce Gibson Roach, still blazing trails at 80

Joyce Gibson Roach, a chaRminG, silveRhaiRed, fifth- GeneR ation texan stoRytelleR, answers most questions with a winding trail of magical stories about her beloved West Texas, horses, cowgirls and talking horned toads.

Roach is a retired Texas Christian University adjunct English professor, author of non-fiction books, short fiction and juvenile fiction, a folklorist, grassroots historian, rancher and naturalist. Her writing accolades include a three-time Western Writers of America Spur Award winner for both fiction and non-fiction.

She is a lifetime member and Fellow of Texas State Historical Association and of Texas Folklore Society, a member of Texas Institute of Letters, Philosophical Society of Texas, lifetime member of West Texas Historical Association and of Horned Lizard Conservation Society, of which she is a past national president. Roach is a 2010 Honoree in Fort Worth’s National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame.

Her induction into the Cowgirl Hall of Fame touched Roach

to the core, she says.

The Cowgirl counts Roach’s first book, “The Cowgirls,” as a foundational text that is used to explain cowgirls and what they are about. “They had my quote on the wall and in the membership book that they published for the first time. I believe this is the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Roach says.

The quote reads: “The emancipation of women may have begun not with the vote, nor in the cities where women marched and carried signs and protested, but rather when they mounted a good cow horse and realized how different and fine the view. From the back of a horse, the world looked wider.”

“Joyce Roach writes books, but to me she is the type of woman that books should be written about,” says Pat Riley, executive director of the National Cowgirl Museum and Hall of Fame. “Her life is fascinating and rich in history that is so distinctly Texas.” Riley describes Roach as “a strong Texas woman that can run a ranch, travel as easily on horseback as in a car, dance the two-step with lightness and grace and tell a story that is bawdy but made elegant by the sweet sound of her voice.”

Roach’s latest book, “The Land of Rain Shadow: Horned Toad, Texas,” was published in June 2015. The book is a collection of eight short stories linked by place. The setting is the tiny, fictional town of Horned Toad.

“I know the exceptional talent, and I have read most of the stories as well as most all of her writings in other genres,” says Bob J. Frye, emeritus professor of English, TCU. “This latest collection evokes an authentic sense of Texas place and includes perhaps the best short story ever – ‘Crucero.’ It is a gem.”

Her children's book, Horned Toad Canyon, is a fantasy where talking horned toads live on a ranch. A tie-in was her audio column for the Star-Telegram in the 1990s where people could dial a number, and she would tell them a short story about Horned Toad, Texas. "I actually had people write and ask where it was,” Roach says. “They wanted to visit. I had to tell them it was a fictional town.”

Horned toads, horned lizards and horned frogs, all figure in several of Roach’s works. Of course, TCU is high on her list. “People ask me why I went to TCU, and I had to say because the colors were purple and white like my high school colors and because I knew a whole lot about horned toads and played with them all my life. I thought any school that has a horned toad for a mascot was bound to be a place for me."

HOMETOWN HEROES

Therese Migala Moncrief

Citizen and Community Leader

Born in Paris, France, Therese Moncrief grew up traveling with her French mother, Polish father and four brothers, living in Bangkok, Athens, Rome and Munich. She studied at the Sorbonne, earned a B.A. from the University of Dallas and worked on a master’s at UTA. With a plan of becoming an astronaut, she was about to transfer to the University of Houston when she met and later married her husband. She says she “reorganized her priorities” and since 1987 has lived in Fort Worth with her husband, Tom, and sons, John and TJ.

Describing herself as a “wife, mother, and entrepreneur,” Therese co-founded the Lone Star Film Society and Fort Worth Studios after producing a documentary and feature film. She’s partnered with her husband in two restaurants, the Vintage Grill & Car Museum in Weatherford and the Wild Mushroom in Fort Worth.

But it’s her altruistic support of a variety of causes that designated this Hometown Hero one of the Great Women of Texas in 2014 by the Fort Worth Business Press. Actively involved in various capacities, Therese serves on numerous boards, projects, and foundations including the Jewel Charity, Texas State History Museum Foundation, TAFB, Stage West, Careity Foundation, BRIT, Chandor Gardens, Catholic Charities, and Ballet Concerto’s F.I.N.D.

All of the causes are dear to her heart, Therese says. “The opportunity to make a difference; that’s what is important.” Dismissing any idea of heroism, she says, “I’m just living out my faith. That’s the way I was raised. That is my priority.”

TXO chases oil throughout North America, but we proudly call Fort Worth our home. So to us, Fort Worth is not just where we work; it’s a place we love. TXO’s pledge to be a good corporate neighbor is one we take seriously and look forward to growing through initiatives like sponsoring local charities and also by supporting other community events. TXO’s philanthropic endeavors make a significant difference to numerous organizations, through community development, social services, health and medical causes and education.

Roach’s husband, Claude, played football for TCU. He passed away in 2005.

As an adjunct professor of English at TCU, Roach taught the Western Novel and reintroduced Literature of the Southwest as a part of regional studies.

Fred Erisman, a colleague at TCU, says that no classroom can limit Roach. “She enters the room bringing with her a vision of space and place, and first to go are the walls,” Erisman says. “Desks and chairs give way to landscape, flora and fauna. Finally comes the heart of the matter – the people. No longer cardboard figures on a printed page, men and women move through the scene, going about their daily affairs and carrying out all the deeds that make the human animal so fascinating,” he adds. “And all this derives from two things: the text at hand and the abilities of Joyce Gibson Roach.”

Born in Cleburne and raised an only child, Roach’s family moved to Jacksboro when she was about a year old. It was in Jacksboro where she fell in love with horses and land. She never had a horse of her own, even when she was riding barrels with the TCU rodeo. Growing up, she spent every minute possible riding as much of Jack County as she could cover on the Lupton’s CocaCola Ranch with the Gustin boys, Loyd and Lewis. She learned to ride on a “mean-tempered, stubborn son-of-Satan” horse named Billy that belonged to Kit Moncrief’s family.

“It started with a horse. A hunger for horses and my own land remained all my life,” she says.

Since she didn’t have a horse, she decided to write about them.

“It’s something I carry inside me, and there’s nothing in the world that thrills me more than the idea of the horse and all that it’s meant historically—even historically with women,” Roach says. “It was a woman’s first use of early technology. There are many historians that will say that the horse was the finest technology the West had.”

Fort Worth has always been important to Roach. “It was then, became, and still is, the center of my universe in the way of a wider world,” she says. “Of course, TCU was a part of that. I've always been proud of the fact that it is the beginning of West Texas. Truly, from a geographical point of view, it is West Texas. It may be the very eastern edge, but it still is West Texas. My viewpoint has always been in that direction.”

As to her legacy, Roach says, “If there’s any contribution that I’ve made in writing, it’s maybe to tell a different kind of story about the West, about Texas and the cowboy story. The cowgirl story would never have been told if we had not had the cowboy story. I always make that point. I don’t like this ‘We stand alone. We stand apart.’ No, a man had to blaze the way for you. They had to open the door for you and your chance to get on a horse because they needed you.”

Roach’s two children, Darrell Roach, and Delight Justice, both hold degrees from TCU. Grandson Trey Roach is a senior at Texas Tech, and granddaughter Hollyann Roach is a senior at Keller High.

Roach has a home in Keller that she shares with her very large and much-loved rescue dog, Daisy.

The family ranch, Crosswinds, is located in the Western Cross Timbers in Wise County, Texas, where she has established the Center for Western Cross Timbers Studies dedicated to communicating about and conserving the region.

As for the future, Roach says, “You know, you get to a certain age when you’ve got to get over yourself. I’ve gotten over myself. I’ve done my best, and it’s time for me to settle down in these last years to something that’s useful at home. What I have done is turn my attention to Keller and its history. Two other ladies and I have organized a foundation to preserve the history of Keller. We moved an old house and opened the Wild Rose Heritage Center. I am about to be the board chairman.”

art of the city

Two new public art projects arise amidst construction.

Public art stirs our imaginings and lends a sense of place, promoting civic pride and reflecting who we are as a community. Fort Worth Public Art (FWPA), a City of Fort Worth program administered by the Arts Council of Fort Worth, has enriched the visual environment for residents and visitors, celebrated the city’s rich cultural and ethnic diversity, and fostered artfully designed infrastructure since its inception in 2001.

Two Fort Worth Public Art projects, Wind Roundabout on Henderson Street and Trinity Water Fowls on the Chisholm Trail Parkway, are now complete.

The second phase of installation of Wind Roundabout by California-based artist and sculptor, Ned Kahn, was dedicated on Dec. 10. The large-scale, kinetic sculpture is located on the new roundabout at the intersection of Henderson Street and White Settlement Road.

During Phase II, thousands of small anodized aluminum, hinged plates were hung one at a time from steel tension cables attached to the 30-foot tall by 30-foot diameter stainless steel support structure that was installed last spring during Phase I. The surface of Wind Roundabout moves with the direction and force of the wind. The columnar “veil” of the rectangular aluminum plates creates a dynamic visual pattern as the wind blows through it and glistens in the sunlight during the day. At night, they reflect the soft glow of ambient light from passing cars and future surrounding buildings.

Kahn makes natural forces visible in his work by using elements such as water, wind, fire and sand, he says.

The City of Fort Worth commissioned Wind Roundabout for the long-awaited Panther Island Bridges project, part of the Trinity

River Vision Master Plan. The sculpture provides a visual focal point for motorists using the roundabout and hints at things to come with the redevelopment of Panther Island.

Twelve large-scale mosaic murals on the East Clear Fork Crossing bridge monuments, just east of University Boulevard, are now complete. Dedication is planned for early March 2016. The series, titled Trinity Water Fowls, by Seattle-based artist Norie Sato, is part of a public art project commissioned by the City of Fort Worth for the new Chisholm Trail Parkway.

Phase I of the Chisholm Trail Parkway public art project began in 2014, with the installation of mosaics on eight columnar water crossing markers along the parkway. Each marker features an image of wildlife from the Trinity River Watershed.

Each of the six bridge monuments features two large glass and stone mosaic murals and smaller mosaic panels on all four sides. Sato’s designs were inspired by images taken by 18 local photographers.

Placed where the roadway crosses streams and tributaries of the Trinity River, Water Crossing Markers and Trinity Water Fowls appear to motorists as subtle visual reminders of the parkway’s surrounding natural environment. The markers begin at the Montgomery Street westbound entrance ramp and continue along the parkway to FM 1187.

You may not even think about the energy that lights up your world.

But we do.

We’re ExxonMobil. And the natural gas we produce generates more of our electricity than ever before. And because it’s cleaner burning, it’s helping dramatically reduce America’s emissions.

Because turning on the lights isn’t as simple as just flipping a switch.

Energy lives here.

North Texas Fitness Guide

F ITNESS TRENDS CHANGE ALMoST AS QuICkLY AS FASHIoN. IN

THE ´80S, THE FoCuS WAS oN ABS AND BuNS, JuST ASk JANE FoNDA. Cindy Crawford took over in the ’90s, as did the Tae Bo craze.

While boot camps were the big trend last year, 2016 blends new fitness ideas and exercise modes ready for exploration. Wearable technology easily takes the No. 1 spot, but body weight training and high-intensity interval workouts rank at a close second and third.

Another trend is “functional fitness,” a concept based on the idea that our workouts should mimic and support activities done in everyday life. The goal is to prepare the body to perform daily activities such as walking, bending, lifting and climbing without pain or injury. Using multiple muscle groups in an integrated way is the premise behind functional fitness.

Whether chasing the latest trend to spice up an ordinary fitness routine or sticking with a tried-and-true method that has worked for years, here is a fitness map to help navigate the New Year.

Recipes From WATERS Bonnell’s Coastal Cuisine

Once every few months I venture out of my kitchen to get a peek into the world of a professional chef. This month I went to WATERS Bonnell’s Coastal Cuisine in West 7th to see what’s cookin’ inside the modern seafood restaurant that arose from the Western roots of owner Jon Bonnell. Executive Chef Clint Connaway was more than happy to share three simple and delicious recipes inspired by his love of bold, Texas flavors. Each delectable dish proves that seafood can still be comforting in the cold winter months.

a fresh start

All good dishes begin with good ingredients. Use these tips to select the freshest clams before you cook.

Clams should smell of the ocean and be tightly closed although some gaping is normal. If you tap them gently on the counter and they close, they are ready to go.

Do not select clams that are cracked or chipped.

Clams should not be packed in an airtight bag. Perforated or open bags on ice are preferred until you get them home.

Once at home, keep them cold in the refrigerator until ready to cook. Do not store in water. Uncovered in a metal bowl is best.

Rinse clams well before steaming. After cooking, discard any clams that did not open.

History in tHe Making

More than a year into debate over the historic stockyards’ future, much work remains.

The

debate over the future of Fort Worth’s historic Stockyards has moved on to the next chapter of a months-long ironic spectacle: deep disagreement over preservation within a group that’s ostensibly been heavily involved for years in major Stockyards preservation projects. During a mid-December workshop, held in the Stockyards to gather public input on a protective historic district that Mayor Betsy Price and City Council members this fall decided to overlay on the Stockyards, Liz Casso, Fort Worth’s preservation officer, put up a PowerPoint selling preservation as promoting redevelopment, buoying property values, generating jobs and creating an aura of security for property owners who want to know their investments are protected. In the room at River Ranch, the rustic Stockyards event venue, stood principals from all of the Stockyards’ most significant property-ownership groups.

“It’s not the goal of a historic district to stop change,” Casso told the group over the clatter of a band rehearsing in the room next door. “It’s meant to guide it as it moves forward.”

That city officials had to put on Preservation 101 to this particular group of property owners was no surprise. Stockyards stakeholders, who have squabbled for nearly two years over a $175 million redevelopment plan for the district and how best to protect the remnants of its storied livestock history, disagree on the overlay. Price and the council acceded to the overlay after a task force spent a year developing a set of recommended standards and guidelines for future Stockyards development. “I don’t trust the politics of Fort Worth with what’s going on in the Stockyards,” Mike Costanza, a property owner who’s been critical of the overlay, said, raising a finer point about equal treatment for property east and west of North Main Street.

The questions raised during the workshop typified the sensitive nature of questions over how much control the city will assume of future development, and the distrust that exists between the different stakeholders, some of whom have been years-long partners in Stockyards entities, like the giant Billy Bob’s Texas honkytonk.

The arguing has upset the traditional trustful way that major deals have historically been done in Fort Worth. And it’s set the timetable for the city’s consideration of a set of so-called “form-based codes” that will govern development in the Stockyards back by at least a year, with the city initially envisioning the process to be complete by the end of 2015. The development of the codes, which will be overseen by an independent consultant to be hired by the city early in 2016, is expected to take up much of the new year.

The partnership of Majestic Realty and Fort Worth’s Hickman family, which together planned the major development in the district that’s triggered the angst when they announced it in 2014, is raising concerns about the historic overlay.

The city offers a historic site tax exemption credit that would grant a 10-year freeze on the city valuation for property tax purposes if the developer spends 30 percent of the initial appraised value on eligible rehab expenses. It’s one of a number of local, state and federal financial incentives available to developers – big and small – doing projects in historic neighborhoods.

But Brad Hickman, the Hickman family’s lead, took a narrow view on the freeze during the workshop and questioned its monetary value. Using an example of a building valued at $300,000 for tax purposes, he said, “Your property taxes would have to go up $10,000 a year just to break even. It’s not this big rebate.”

Hickman also raised the prospect that Majestic – the financial and development muscle in the Majestic-Hickman partnership - could walk if it perceives overly burdensome regulation. “We don’t have the money to do some of the construction we’re working on, and if the developer we’re working with decides this isn’t their cup of tea anymore…” Hickman said, not completing the sentence.

It’s a point that Price says has occurred to her. “It’s crossed my mind a few times,” she said in an interview. “But I don’t think (Majestic) would (walk). I think they’re committed to it. (Majestic chief

Ed Roski) feels like they have a commitment to Holt Hickman,” the Hickman family patriarch who amassed his Stockyards holdings in the 1990s and died a year ago. Brad Hickman and Kerby Smith, Majestic’s top local executive, declined to be interviewed for this article.

The workshop was noted for the absence of Steve Murrin, former Fort Worth city councilman and a longtime Stockyards businessman and partner of the Hickmans in entities including Billy Bob’s. Murrin, one of the leading skeptics of the Majestic-Hickman redevelopment plan, underwent a quintuple heart bypass surgery after Thanksgiving and had just left the hospital to recuperate with his son, the Stockyards developer and businessman Philip Murrin, a day before the workshop. Philip Murrin did not speak at the workshop, but said later he was still in search of a “win-win” for all property owners and other stakeholders.

“The win-win is finding the balance that preserves the Stockyards’ authentic history and sense of place while simultaneously allowing for growth and evolution,” he said. “Interestingly, this concept is what has been maligned as veto power” by some in the Majestic team. “We asked that preservation be given equal consideration to economics in developing the Stockyards.”

If Fort Worth likes to do business with people it knows, skepticism over the Majestic-Hickman partnership was easy to foresee.

In the early 1900s, Gustavus Swift and Ogden Armour turned the Stockyards into one of the world’s largest meat-packing centers, addressing the high demand for Texas beef. Modernization led to the Stockyards’ demise as a packing center in the 1960s and 1970s, and city and business leaders and developers have been trying to stabilize the district’s fragile historical remnants before decay beats them to it. In the 1990s, Holt Hickman - an indefatigable spokesman for the city who made his living in aftermarket automobile air conditioners - amassed 80 acres in the Stockyards, including the historic Livestock Exchange Building and the dilapidated hog and sheep pens. Hickman rehabbed the hog and sheep pens into the Stockyards Station festival center and built a visitors center and what is today the Hyatt Place hotel. But with his declining health, Hickman and his family decided to enter the partnership with Majestic, a California developer.

"The win-win is finding the balance that preserves the Stockyards' authentic history and sense of place while simultaneously allowing for growth and evolution." - Philip Murrin

“The Stockyards is a massive project,” Brad Hickman, who, with his sister Brenda Kostohryz, represented the family at the announcement of the partnership and planned

project in June 2014, said then. In explaining why the family brought in a partner, Hickman, who runs a Fort Worth company that designs and manufactures air conditioning systems, told reporters, “We’re landowners, we’re not developers. We’re business owners and things of this nature.”

The skepticism was already in high gear behind the scenes. Majestic, based in California, has no history of historic work. Its top executive over the project commuted to Fort Worth from the West Coast, and he fueled cynicism in 2014 when he used Disneyland as an example to describe the kind of activity the partnership wanted to build in the Stockyards. The Murrins today have interests in about 50 acres in the heart of the Stockyards and had been in talks to join the Majestic-Hickman partnership before it was announced, but those talks fell apart over early disagreements.

Price, who, three weeks before the partnership was announced, gave a teaser in an appearance at the Woodhaven Country Club in Fort Worth, admits to being surprised by the amount of negative response.

Price says that as Hickman’s health slipped, she had a lengthy phone conversation with Holt Hickman and his wife Jo about the partnership, and she heard what she needed to hear. “I wanted to hear from Holt that he was comfortable with the partners he had chosen, that he felt they would be true to the Stockyards, that they weren’t just in this for the money, that they were in this for the community and would do their due diligence,” Price said in the interview.

Besides the number of stakeholders in the Stockyards and cynicism of the out-of-town partner, “it’s really hard for people to accept change to an area like that, that people are passionate about, that people love, without full description,” she said.

This summer Majestic issued a detailed mixed-use plan for the 68 acres that’s in the partnership, calling for 1 million square feet of new construction and uses including restaurants, shops, offices, hotels and public amenities in three districts. The districts include Swift-Armour, closest to the old livestock facilities; Festival, the pub-

lic spaces north of Exchange Avenue and east of the livestock pens; and Marine Creek, which would link the Stockyards to the city’s neighboring Panther Island major North Side redevelopment plan. Skeptics viewed the plan’s issuance as late, even though Majestic and Hickman have been hung up in the talks over standards and guidelines, form-based codes and, now, the historic overlay.

Majestic changed things up this summer at the same time the volunteer task force was finishing its work and recommendations, which included that the City Council appoint a member with preservation background to Fort Worth’s Urban Design Commission and consider a historic overlay. The council agreed to both measures.

Smith, a Texan and Fort Worth real estate executive, became Majestic’s new local frontman for the project. “They needed a local team,” Price said. “From the very first, Ed Roski said they would put a local team on the ground.”

Majestic also brought in the Fort Worth architect Michael Bennett, a principal in Fort Worth’s Bennett Benner Partners firm, to work on renovations the Majestic-Hickman partnership is making to the two old horse and mule barns on East Exchange Avenue – the partnership’s first project. Fort Worth’s Historic and Cultural Landmarks Commission, with the support of the Historic Fort Worth nonprofit, approved a renovation plan for the barns that includes putting windows and doors in the nowsolid Exchange front, which will allow the partnership to market the buildings to a range of potential users. The Majestic-Hickman partnership also upgraded the historic designation on the west barn to “highly significant endangered,” matching the designation on the east barn. The former designation on the west barn was “demolition delay,” a low barrier that allows demolition to occur 180 days after a building owner requests a permit.

invest more than $40 million in the preservation of both horse and mule barns and designation of one as (highly significant endangered), the highest local designation possible,” Smith told council members during a meeting in November.

Bennett, whose creds include substantial work in Sundance Square downtown and on the Near South Side, could end up doing a substantial amount of the work for the Stockyards partnership, Price predicted. “I think he’s got an excellent feel for what needs to be done,” she said.

The Majestic-Hickman partnership also raised the ire of preservationists this fall when it sought and received 23 demolition permits for structures in the Stockyards ahead of the council’s move on the historic district. That includes six inside the proposed historic overlay boundary.

The next several months for the Stockyards contain numerous hurdles.

On Jan. 11, the Landmarks Commission will hold a public hearing vote on the historic district, followed by the Zoning Commission, which will do the same on Feb. 10. On March 1, the council will hold a hearing and vote on the historic district. The city staff is going out to bid for the consultant who will oversee the development of the form-based codes, a set of regulations specific to the Stockyards that address form, mass, scale, location and context, and streetscape and other amenities. From March through September, the consultant is expected to prepare standards and guidelines for the historic district and formbased codes, using the task force’s recommendations and consulting with property owners and other stakeholders.

“… he fueled cynicism in 2014 when he used Disneyland as an example to describe the kind of activity the partnership wanted to build in the Stockyards.

Numerous questions remain unsettled. The consultant will develop the form-based codes through a series of public charrettes. The City Council must decide on the final boundaries for the overlay, which adds protection from demolition and exterior modifications that the form-based codes lack. The location of planned residential promises to be contentious. And the council must decide whether to retain final say in development cases, or give that control to the Urban Design Commission and Landmarks Commission.

On the city staff-recommended boundary of the historic district, Price and council members are under pressure from both sides to add more property to the boundary, and from some property owners to exclude their pieces. The boundary, for one, doesn’t include the historic “Ruins” on the southeast end of the Stockyards at Northeast 23rd Street and Niles City Boulevard. And some of the partners in Billy Bob’s have asked the council to remove Billy Bob’s.

The Majestic-Hickman partnership “remains unequivocally dedicated to preserve, protect and enhance our most valuable and historical structures, as demonstrated with our October commitment to

Jerre Tracy, executive director of Historic Fort Worth, says the council put itself in a bind by granting a $26 million incentive to the Majestic-Hickman partnership over 25 years through a Texas “Chapter 380” agreement. That created a disincentive for the partnership to pursue other incentives tied to historic rehab, she said. “It’s a conun-

drum,” Tracy said. “I’m not sure the council understood what the 380 agreement was doing to the Stockyards.”

“I think the boundary’s very good,” Price said. “A lot of work went into that. It’ll be interesting to see what kind of comments we get back (from the public hearings), but I think the boundaries are pretty equitable.”

Mayor Pro Tem Sal Espino, whose city council district includes the Stockyards, said in an interview, “I think the boundary that was initially established is a good boundary. Having said that, as we go out to the public, it can get modified. I don’t anticipate it getting smaller. I do anticipate it getting tweaked. We’ll see what the public says.

“I believe the boundary as presently designed protects the core of the Stockyards and allows the right kind of development,” Espino continued. “And we’ll have the protections of the Historic and Cultural Landmarks Commission, the Zoning Commission and the form-based codes.”

The prospect of Majestic-Hickman clearing the ruins site, which carries no historic protection, and building apartments on it has also raised some concern. When the partnership rolled out its proposed master plan in July, it proposed an office, a hotel, apartments and surface parking for the site. Majestic and Hickman plan to develop more apartments south of Stockyards Station on Northeast 23rd. The partnership plans to build 350-400 units in the first phase.

“As we go forward with it, you have to have the right mix of retail, office and residential,” Espino said. “If there are plans for residential, where do you put it, is it appropriate, and does it fit into the Stockyards? I think those are issues that still need to be hashed out.”

How much control the council wants to retain is also at issue. Price and council members have promised to retain final say, including review of site plans, for development in the district.

Once the form-based codes and historic overlay go into place, if a development in the form-based code district, but outside of the currently-smaller historic overlay, comes before the city, the city staff could issue approval if the project meets the standards. If it doesn’t, the project would go before the Urban Design Commission. If a project inside the historic district comes before the city that doesn’t involve demolition and only requires minor changes, the city’s preservation officer could decide to approve the project herself. Or she could refer it to the Landmarks Commission. Decisions of the commission can be appealed to Fort Worth’s Board of Adjustment; its decisions can be appealed to the courts.

The City Council, if it wants to retain final say, would have to convert the Urban Design Commission and Landmarks Commission into “recommending bodies.”

“It’s a complicated emotional issue,” Price said, of the ultimate decision of how much the city needs to push into private property rights to protect the Stockyards. “I’m big on private property rights, but on something this historic, you have to have the city play in it to make sure things are done right.”

DaNae Couch

Attorney Age: 27

After receiving a bachelor of arts in English and a minor in Public Relations in 2010 from Baylor University, DaNae Couch earned her doctorate of jurisprudence from Texas Tech University School of Law in 2014. Now working as an Attorney at Lovelace Killen, PLLC, Couch also makes time to support Betty Ford’s Five Star Kids program, Red Ribbon Week programs, Chris Herren’s Project Purple, the Special Olympics and the Children’s Miracle Network.

Before her career as an attorney, she was Miss Texas 2012 and a top 10 finalist at Miss America 2013. During her year of service, she made more than 310 appearances and traveled more than 30,000 miles. Couch says, “I did many interesting things while I was Miss Texas, including getting in a pit of rattlesnakes at the Rattlesnake Roundup in Sweetwater, Texas.”

During the third grade, Couch had the opportunity to do a special project in which she represented the three little pigs in the case of the Three Little Pigs v. Big Bad Wolf. “From that moment on, I fell in love with the idea that attorneys take people’s problems and solve them. I have remained passionate about helping people throughout my educational career and my short professional career. You never know what battles other people are fighting and how much of an impact even a kind word can have on them.”

Amanda Edirimanasinghe

Probation Officer

Age: 27

Working as a probation officer, custom cake designer/baker and model, Edirimanasinghe is also in the process of completing her master’s degree at TCU. She was born in Dubai and has lived in Fort Worth for 18 years.

Edirimanasinghe loves running the Trinity Trails, playing sports such as co-ed soccer, hiking, weight training, swimming laps, cardio kickboxing and

participating in any outdoor activities.

To keep mentally fit, Edirimanasinghe spends time with family and friends and watches documentaries on food, world history and travel. “[It used to be] reading for leisure, but my graduate studies have taken over since August 2014,” she says.

Edirimanasinghe doesn’t believe in New Year’s resolutions. “If you have

a goal, an idea or a dream, why wait another minute to make it your reality? Tomorrow is never promised.” Her definition of beauty is living selflessly and generously in all aspects of life. “Beauty should be influenced by non-physical factors in addition to physical factors."

Most of the time, you will find Emily Beck in jeans and boots, often dining out in the Stockyards. “I am a country girl at heart. So, I love to ride horses and anything that has to do with being outside,” she says.

Beck graduated from the University of Alabama with a major in Communication Studies and now works as a real estate agent with The Helen Painter Group Realtors.

In 2011, Beck survived a tornado. “The only remaining room of our house was the bathroom that my roommate and I were hiding in.”

To Beck, beauty means looking deep inside who you are and realizing that you are messy. “And it also involves taking that messiness and those weaknesses, realizing the potential that God has given you and making the most out of them. Beauty is someone who is completely satisfied in who she is and cultivates that in others. She’s not afraid, she is selfless, she is courageous yet gentle with a genuine heart…always looking to see the best in people.”

Karly Johnston is a Realtor by day and blogger by night. She’s lived in Fort Worth for a decade and says she’s known since her teenage years that she wanted to be in real estate. “I’m so thankful that I get to do this job because it’s a hard business, no matter what anyone says.” Johnston is so passionate about her work that she and her business partner, Ashley Sartain, created a blog called sellingthefort.com.

Another passion for Johnston is Shelly’s Kitchen, which was started by the Vidrine family after the loss of Shelly Vidrine to cancer three years ago. Shelly was a spiritual woman who devoted her time to constructing a kitchen in Nairobi, Africa. Johnston’s family and the Vidrine family put on a crawfish boil in the spring to raise funds to support her favorite charity.

In high school, Johnston was voted “Most Likely to be a Super Model.” “It makes me crack up every time I think about it. It would have never worked. Tyra Banks and I are too alike and would have fought like hell!”

Describing herself as “skinny fat.” Johnston says, “My body mostly consists of tendon and skin. Up close, it’s a mess, and when I do work out, I love Smart Barre.”

So what does the future hold for Johnston? Her New Year’s resolution is simple, “I would like a lot more front-lawn and barbecue time with my family.”

Makeup Artist

Age: 36

When Heather Spivey moved to Fort Worth 17 years ago, she worked on her first movie set and realized her life’s dream. Now a contract makeup artist for television, film and print, Spivey believes in keeping abreast of the latest trends. “I’ll never stop going to schools or classes in my field because once you stop learning and growing, you become irrelevant,” she says. Outside of work, Spivey supports Reaction Tour. It exists to empower kids around the world through the display of God’s love, using the avenues of sports, discipleship, dance and music. “My sweet friend Courtney started it, and their team goes into Africa, India and Mexico doing camps for the local children. And, of course, I try and support as many local no-kill animal shelters as possible,” Spivey says.

She is fed up with society’s obsession with social media that screams at us about what makeup to wear, what’s in style and who to mold ourselves after. “Want bluer eyes, whiter teeth? There’s an app for that. Want smaller thighs, more blush?

There’s an app for that. Social media, Photoshop and those types of apps have taken the unique individuality out of what our true beauty is, and we’re left

with a false version of ourselves that we’ve created. It truly breaks my heart when a woman, or worse a little girl, thinks she needs a ton of makeup, to be contoured to the max and have eyebrows on “fleek” to feel beautiful or have people accept her, instead of her accomplishments, strengths or her heart.

To me, beauty is embracing everything about your features and everything that makes up who you are.”

Digital Account Executive Age: 30

Originally from Fayetteville, North Carolina, Tiffany Anderson is a digital account executive with a bachelor of arts in Mass Communications.

Anderson defines beauty as having a good heart and generous mind. To keep fit, she chases her 16-month-old and does a lot of walking and yoga. Anderson is constantly reading articles, anything from

baking to the latest technological advances, and loves to travel to Destin, Florida.

Anderson was once a professional NFL cheerleader for the Baltimore Ravens. She was on the “stunt” team, which at the time was the only stunt team in the NFL. Anderson says that friendship is the most important quality she looks for in a person. “Having a shoulder to lean

on and a listening ear go a long way. It is comforting to be yourself and share laughter with the person you love.”

Having a servant heart and always being the best “her” possible is what Anderson strives for daily.

In addition to being a clinical physician, a good portion of Keator’s time is spent in clinical research dedicated to pediatric epilepsy. “I am the current prime investigator at Cook Children’s Hospital for the Pediatric Epilepsy Research Consortium, which is a national multi-center nonprofit project that actively recruits patients under the age of 3 with a diagnosis of new-onset epilepsy in hopes of

better understanding and identifying etiologies, causes and treatments for specific types of infantile and childhood onset epilepsies,” Keator says.

Keator sits on the physician advisory board for the DFW chapter of the Epilepsy Foundation of Texas, and she has been involved with charities that raise funds for neuroblastoma and Cook Children’s Medical Center, including the Jewel Charity Ball and the Doctor’s Society. Keator says it’s how people carry themselves in their everyday life that truly makes them beautiful. “It is the confidence one has when they walk into a room, how they communi-

cate with others and how they live their lives,” Keator says.

The greatest influence in her life has been her father. She says, “He has shown me work ethic, compassion for others, to always see the good in people and to be thankful to the Lord for everything He has given me.”

Managing a busy work schedule, Keator stays fit mentally and physically by making time to exercise several days a week and spending time with her husband and extended family that live nearby.

Julie

Age: 42

Charitable involvement is close to Julie Siratt’s heart. She has divided her time between The Gladney Center for Adoption, All Saints Episcopal School and Cook Children’s Medical Center. Her youngest daughter is from Guatemala. According to Siratt, Gladney made the grueling part of adoption seem easy. All three of her kids have been at All Saints since kindergarten, and because her middle daughter was premature, Pickin’ for Preemies, which raises money for Cook Children’s NICU, seemed like a natural fit. Siratt earned her degree in Early Childhood Education from TCU. Her 20-yearold son, Lee, is following in his mother’s footsteps and is a sophomore at TCU, majoring in Pre-Business. Sarah Grace, 18 years old, is a senior at All Saints and will be attending TCU in the fall, majoring in Early Childhood Education with a focus in Special Needs. Thirteen-year-old Sofia is a seventh grader at All Saints.

Siratt notes her grandmother, Donna Lancaster, as the most influential person in her life. “Growing up, she always told everyone how special they were to her and how much she loved them,” Siratt says. “You always knew that she was willing to give you the shirt off her back if you needed it. Family, faith and laughter are her favorite things in life, and they are mine as well.”

Mariana Schroeder

Speaker and Activist Age: 32

Born in Monterrey, Mexico, Mariana Schroeder has a bachelor’s degree in Bilingual Education. She’s lived in Fort Worth for three years and is a pro-life speaker and activist, wife and mother.

Schroeder counts her husband as one of her greatest blessings. “He keeps surprising me, year after year, with his good heart and unconditional love. These things to me are the most attractive qualities in him, which are complemented by his work ethic, proactivity and fatherly love. It helps that he is dashingly handsome too.”

Family pets include an English Mastiff named Chikis, eight chickens, two fish and a Juliana pig named Pigo. Schroeder describes her

favorite travel spot, Holbox, Mexico, as “paradise on earth.” A gorgeous island two hours from Cancun, there she’s enjoyed encounters with baby crabs, starfish, puffer fish and swimming with a giant whale shark.

Schroeder stays fit mentally through prayer. “Beginning my day in prayer and encountering the Lord in the Eucharist really helps set the tone for the rest of the day. You don’t realize how much this changes your life until you try it. I still have rough days, this is called life, but the peace He brings me every day overcomes all obstacles.”

Raising a healthy (physically, emotionally and spiritually) family is at the top of Schroeder’s list of priorities. “I am a firm believer that we can

Susan Gruppi

Co-Founder of M2G Ventures Age: 29

As co-founder of M2G Ventures, a commercial real estate investments and consulting company, Susan Gruppi stays busy. However, she makes time for her favorite charities and has resolved to get involved with many more in 2016. Currently she supports Cook Children’s, Habitat for Humanity and United Way of Tarrant County.

Gruppi graduated from Texas Christian University in 2008 with a major in Finance and a minor in Spanish. She considers herself a “wanna-be foodie,” and often frequents Mi Cocina and MICHAELS for dinner.

Her definition of beauty is being comfortable with who you are. “I’d prefer to be the real me and say something strange than the coached version of myself…It’s amazing what we can unlock in ourselves and others when we feel safe in our own skin,” Gruppi says.

change the world around us by first allowing ourselves to be changed, opening our hearts and becoming aware of our surroundings. This allows us to become instruments through which God’s grace can work; after you surrender to Him, things are just never the same.”

Schroeder believes in defending life from conception to natural death. “I dream now of opening a house not just for girls (or single mothers) in crisis pregnancies, but a place that is a safe haven for anyone who needs it.”

2016 School Guide

Each year, thousands of parents and students begin their hunt for the perfect school. Filling out application after application, setting up interviews and making multiple visits to schools can be a daunting task. Where will my child excel academically, grow personally and truly enjoy learning?

Whether you’re seeking a school for a specific teaching methodology or prefer that your child learn in a religious environment at a school that shares your family’s vision, the search can seem daunting. Things can get especially tricky if you are enrolling more than one child into private school or college—one size doesn’t fit all, and it’s difficult to find just the right match. Extensive research is often required, and critical questions will arise regarding tuition costs, test assessments, personal interviews and the application process, among others. When it comes down to it, choosing a school for your child is no easy task, to say the least.

On the following pages, you will find a comprehensive list of private schools, colleges and graduate programs in the area. From fine arts academies and faith-based schools, to Montessori academies and schools focused on accelerated learning for the gifted and talented, the 2016 School Guide gives parents an in-depth look at each school, including student-toteacher ratio, cost of tuition and enrollment.

We hope you will find this quick reference to the area’s schools and colleges helpful as you explore the possibilities of your child’s education.

earning the right to raise money

Komen steps up Race for the Cure in 2016 with more screenings, community events and employer initiatives.

Susan G. Komen Greater Fort Worth is preparinG For a busy 2016 that Executive Director MaryAnn Means-Dufrene says will focus on “earning the right to raise money.”

“Komen is becoming active in taking our role in the community as the breast-health expert,” she said.

Komen, the nation’s largest contributor to breast cancer research apart from the federal government, has been pushing out its mobile

mammography services into rural areas, such as Parker County, where there’s a large population of underinsured women who don’t have primary care relationships and haven’t received recommended mammographies. Parker County has the highest age-adjusted incidences of breast cancer in the four-county area, Means-Dufrene said.

Through early November, Komen had done more than 600 mammograms through the mobile units. The organization works with churches and other community groups to raise awareness and schedule reservations.

“It’s important for us to go to the people that need our services,” said Means-Dufrene, who marked one year as executive director in October. And, “it can’t just be the breast-health providers; it has to be the whole community coming together.”

Komen has also teamed up with the Blue Zones Project – Fort Worth’s well-being initiative. It’s participated in two Blue Zones cooking demos, with a third coming up on Fort Worth’s North Side in February.

The demos promote disease prevention through lifestyle awareness: lower dietary fats, increased vegetable and fruit consumption and lower red meat consumption.

In 2016 Komen will also spread the word on breast health education through employers, scheduling screenings and asking employers to keep employees undergoing cancer treatment on, after they have used up vacation, sick leave, and their 12 weeks’ unpaid leave under the federal Family and Medical Leave Act. Komen will start with large employers.

The message: It’s good for the employer to retain the human capital, and “it’s better for the community if these people can continue to make a living,” Means-Dufrene said.

“We want to begin a dialogue that is non-judgmental, but that explores some of the themes we’ve been seeing,” Means-Dufrene said.

Komen Fort Worth typically raises $1.4 million in a year.

Its first fundraiser of the year, Stock Show Goes Pink on Jan. 26, raises about $25,000, with 50 percent of the show’s proceeds for the day going to Komen Fort Worth. “We fill up the place,” MeansDufrene said.

On April 23, Komen Fort Worth’s annual Race for the Cure will be at Ridgmar Mall, the last year the race will be at the mall. Komen Fort Worth is moving to Clearfork in 2017, where the developer, Cassco Development, is donating office space to the organization. Beginning with its 25th anniversary run in 2017, the Race for the Cure will be in Clearfork. The event raises about $700,000 annually, the organization’s biggest fundraiser.

The new location “gives us more visibility will all the running groups,” Means-Dufrene said.

what matters to you, matters to us

Retailer Kendra Scott combines business and philanthropy in building popular company

Kendra Scott, the faStgrowing eponymouS jewelry retailer founded in 2002 on $500, has a simple corporate giving philosophy.

“We like to say we always have something to give,” Beth Huddleston, the company’s community relations and event manager in Fort Worth, says. “We have a never-say-no policy. We always find a way to help.”

The privately held Austin company, which has stores in 15 states today, got its start when founder Kendra Scott went door to door to boutiques on the city’s

popular Congress Avenue, carrying a tea box of her jewelry made from natural stones and in custom shapes. The retailer opened its first Fort Worth location in University Park Village in 2014.

The company has grown with a “Family, Fashion & Philanthropy” focus, today selling its proprietary pieces through Kendra Scott stores and other retailers such as Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s. It reports it’s donated $1 million and 50,000 pieces of jewelry in the past 12 months, working through more than 1,000 local and national organizations like the M.D. Anderson Cancer

Center. “That’s a huge feat,” Huddleston says.

The social aspect of the company runs through its culture. It runs trunk shows, pop-up boutiques at community events, shopping parties and parties at the stores’ Color Bars, where guests make their own pieces.

Kendra Scott’s philanthropic endeavors follow the same thread. “What matters to you, matters to us,” the company likes to say. It retraces part of its philanthropic history to the story of Scott’s stepfather who, while being treated at Anderson, told her “you do good.”

The stores team up with organizations to run in-house events called “Kendra Gives Back Parties,” offering up complimentary snacks and beverages, with 20 percent of sales going to the organization. Each store has its own special events team, and the stores typically run events two or three times a week, Huddleston said. The company also contributes to off-site events ranging from school auctions to galas.

It contributes 20 percent of sales from “Kendra Gives Back Charms” to Anderson, the National Down Syndrome Congress, and The Seton Breast Care Center in Austin.

The company’s contributions to Seton are inspired by two of Scott’s friends who are breast cancer survivors.

Kendra Scott’s partnership with the Down Syndrome Congress, which promotes the interests of people with Down syndrome and their families through advocacy, public awareness, and information, was inspired by the story of a patient named Issie, who began drawing pictures of hearts while undergoing a series of heart exams. Her family went looking for a designer who could create a necklace from the drawings and found Kendra Scott.

“Our philosophy is very grass-roots, very relationship-based,” Huddleston said. “We like to say, ‘my sister, my mother, my grandmother can wear these pieces.’ There’s something for everyone.”

Extraordinary personalities shaping Fort Worth

Zach Freeman

Zach Freeman, Founder and ceo oF Fort Worth-based Veterans moVing america, is guided by four passions in life: faith, creativity, helping others and challenging himself.

“At its core, the combination of my four personal values lets me do what I do every day,” Freeman says. “Starting a company has strengthened my faith. I tell people all the time that if you want to grow in your faith, start a company. This job gives me the opportunity for creativity in coming up with goals and solutions. We are a company that’s helping others. That’s why it was started in the first place. And, I challenge myself. I could tell you all kinds of challenging moments in being an entrepreneur.”

Freeman is not a veteran. His parents are not veterans. He is the only non-veteran moving company owner that exclusively hires American veterans.

“Everyone wonders, ‘Why veterans?’” Freeman says.

The genesis of “Why?” began in 2008, the summer before his senior year in high school, when Freeman met a troubled U.S. Marine Corps veteran at church. Freeman’s father became the man’s mentor. In October that year, the Marine lost his job and got a divorce in the same month. Freeman’s family offered him a place to live for a few months until he got back on his feet. A few months turned into three years.

“There were nights when I came in after being out with my friends, and I would walk near his room,” Freeman recalls. “He would fling the door open and almost attack me until he realized who I was. He struggled with depression, alcoholism and post-traumatic stress disorder. He came across as rude or aggressive, but that was just what was drilled into his head while he was in the Marine Corps. It was hard for him to keep a job.

This left a big soft spot in my heart for veterans.”

Freeman was born and raised in Encinitas, California, a suburb of San Diego. He has an older brother, Jay, who lives in San Francisco and a younger sister, Hannah, who is graduating from Texas Christian University this May. Their parents still live in San Diego.

Freeman visited TCU’s campus in his junior year of high school. All plans to remain in California for college went out the window, he says. “At the time, it was a scary decision because I

knew nobody and had never been that far from home. Looking back, it was hands down, one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.”

Freeman, a 2013 graduate, majored in Entrepreneurial Management and Supply Chain Management at TCU’s M.J. Neeley School of Business. Two departments honored him his senior year with the Servant Leadership Award and the Professors’ Award.

“It was after attending the CEO Club’s National Conference in Fort Worth, that I began entertaining the thought of starting my own business,” Freeman says. “I knew I wanted a company that would help veterans. For some reason, the idea of starting a moving company that only hired veterans popped into my head. I did some research and got feedback from veterans and a lot of other people. It all came back good, so I decided to go for it. I wrote a business plan and found some investors. In June 2013, we opened the doors.”

Freeman created a company culture that is team and family oriented.

“The number one thing these guys miss after being in the military is comradery, family atmosphere and just fitting in,” Freeman says.

“Because of that experience with the Marine, I wanted this company to give veterans what another company can’t give them. When they come to work, they are surrounded by people they are familiar with, people that speak their language, people that can share their struggles and challenges and fears. They can talk to them. These guys not only get a job and some money in their pocket, but they also get a community and a new family that can support them inside and outside of work.”

VMA recently partnered with Safe Haven of Tarrant County to provide moving services free of charge to victims of domestic violence.

“Our veterans are already heroes,” Freeman says. “To these women and children, they will become even more so. We hope other companies can join this movement.”

Kimbell Kids Drop-In Studio, Jan. 2

This free program introduces children (ages 12 and under) and their adult companions to fun and inspiring ways to enjoy art together. Each session features a brief gallery activity and a related studio-art project. Free; space limited to 20 children, plus adults. Sign-up at the entrance to the education studios in the Renzo Piano Pavilion begins one hour before the program. Kimbell Art Museum. 3333 Camp Bowie Blvd. kimbellart.org. 817.332.8451.

FOCUS: Glenn Kaino, Jan. 30-Apr. 17

Glenn Kaino’s work carefully balances formal and conceptual concerns as the artist combines an often unexpected hybrid of materials in order to best communicate an idea, history, or system that might be less effective with traditional art media. His installation Tank, 2014, for example, is composed of seven aquariums containing clusters of coral species thriving on clear resin replicas of military tanks that are submerged in the water. Tank signals life after violence, rebuilding, and the organic triumphing over the inanimate.

Kaino’s project also mirrors the United States’ practice of discarding used military weapons in ocean beds for an ironically positive outcome in the aquatic ecosystem: the artillery actually encourages reefs to flourish in areas of the ocean

where the coral had previously been eradicated. The colorful variations of coral specimens in Tank border one another to form a coded, maplike appearance, indicating colonialism and the territorial battles connected with war. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. 3200 Darnell St. themodern.org. 817.738.9215.

Kehinde Wiley: A New Republic Exhibition Tour, through Jan. 2

history of America and whose contributions to the national conversation are paramount. Amon Carter Museum of American Art. 3501 Camp Bowie Blvd. cartermuseum.org. 817.738.1933

Castiglione: Lost Genius. Masterworks on Paper from the Royal Collection, through Feb. 14

On loan from Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and the British Royal Collection are 90 works on paper by Italy’s magnificent artist and printmaker Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione (1609--1664). Despite his impetuous, unpredictable behavior, which ultimately thwarted his ambitions, Castiglione was arguably the most innovative and technically brilliant Italian draftsman of his time. The British Royal Collection holds the finest surviving group of his work, and this exhibition aims to reinstate the 17th-century master as one of the greatest graphic artists of the Baroque. Castiglione: Lost Genius will be on view free of charge in the Renzo Piano Pavilion. Kimbell Art Museum. 3333 Camp Bowie Blvd. kimbellart.org. 817.332.8451.

Joyce Pensato, through Jan. 31

Since the mid-1970s, Joyce Pensato has utilized some of the most iconic American cartoons and comic book characters, such as Mickey Mouse, Felix the Cat, Donald Duck, the Simpsons, and Kyle and Stan from South Park, as starting points for her drawings and paintings. Pensato transforms these characters into portraits that vacillate between menacing and amusing, fretful and enthusiastic. Pensato freezes and modifies these familiar faces, isolating them to further comment on American society and its anxieties. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. 3200 Darnell St. themodern.org. 817.738.9215.

That Day: Laura Wilson, through Feb. 14 Laura Wilson takes us into a West defined by diverse communities outside the suburban middle-class. This exhibition of seventy-two photographs introduces us to worlds that are hard-bitten and fiercely independent. Framed equally by beauty and violence, the images reflect the artist’s challenge to today’s homogenized America.

Tales from the American West: The ReesJones Collection, through Feb. 21

Dallas collector Trevor Rees-Jones first became interested in art and the American West when visiting the Amon Carter Museum of American Art as a young boy. Years later that experience led Rees-Jones to gather one of the finest private collections of art of the American West, spanning the eighteenth century through the 1920s, including paintings, watercolors, sculpture, and photographs. The selection of the Rees-Jones Collection on view marks its debut showing in a museum. Amon Carter Museum of American Art. 3501 Camp Bowie Blvd. cartermuseum.org. 817.738.1933.

Highlights from the Permanent Collection, through Mar. 20

The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth presents a new installation of the permanent collection. This re-arrangement consists of treasured favorites, rarely seen works from the vault, and new acquisitions. “While our collection is relatively small, it is very high in quality and includes major works by some of the most important artists of our time. These pieces are internationally known and should be on view on a regular basis, as visitors travel long distances to see them. However, seeing these works in different configurations creates new contexts for appreciating them. Fortunately, our Ando building offers some

very special and unique spaces in which we can re-organize the collection. The Museum’s first floor is a particularly interesting arrangement of galleries. Rather than a strictly chronological presentation, this re-distribution will be presented as clusters of works centered on regions or individual artists,” notes Chief Curator Michael Auping. The Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth. 3200 Darnell St. themodern.org. 817.738.9215.

Pasture Crows Crossing Indian Creek, through May 30

It is part of the museum’s program of rotating contemporary artworks in the atrium space and an exciting addition to an ongoing exploration of Texas artists and their contributions to modern American art.

Kelly, Reverend Johnnie Swearingen, Velox Ward, and Clara McDonald Williamson, among others.

Lively storytelling was their primary focus, and they used any pictorial means necessary to create animated narratives about working, playing, and worshipping in Texas.

128 Horseshoe Hill Café / 130 Buttons / 132 Extra Bites
Red Chile Cheese Enchiladas at Horseshoe Hill Café
Fort Worth, Texas: The City’s

feelin’ lucky

Chef Grady Spears returns to Fort Worth, searing a brand on the Stockyards with his latest restaurant venture, Horseshoe Hill Café.

On a sleepy section of West e xchange street, horseshoe hill café is like stepping back in time. From the outside, this Western café looks as if it would be a spot for cowboys to get a hot bath, drink whiskey and play some poker. While today Harleys are hitched out front instead of horses, the elevated cuisine keeps its cowboy roots.

Inside, the vibe is informal with a rustic charm. A rearing,

location: 204 W. Exchange Ave. Fort Worth 76164 for info call: 817.882.6405

stuffed billy goat wearing a BBQ championship apron greets guests. Western-themed artwork adorns the walls, and classic country greats like Willie and Waylon (both of whom would most likely approve of the café) twang through the quaint space. Lunchtime patrons order at the counter from a large handwritten blackboard menu; then the food is later delivered to the table. Full service kicks in at dinner.

horseshoehillcafe.com

hours: Wed. & Thu. 11 a.m. - 9 p.m., Fri. & Sat. 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. What We like: Charming country dishes, such as Rocky Mountain Oysters and ChickenFried Steak, are elevated to the highest level.

What We Didn’t: Some of the garnishes were wilted and seemed almost like an afterthought.

our recommendation: Trying one of the five varieties of the Chicken-Fried Steak is a must.

Blazing the trail were the Texana Deviled Eggs ($8 for six, $12 for 12). Prepared traditionally, the eggs had a creamy filling and were sprinkled with crispy bits of bacon and green onions, creating a nice balance of texture and flavor. An accompanying mound of a lackluster dressed salad had wilted spinach and was topped with pico de gallo.

Arriving on a campfire-style metal platter, the definite star of the meal was the Chicken-Fried Steak ($17), which can be ordered five different ways at Horseshoe Hill. The Cowboy Way seemed most traditional, so that was the winner on this trip. The crisp, perfectly seasoned crust encompassing the tender steak is a far cry from the soggy, chewy varieties commonly served at other local

Chicken Fried Steak, The Cowboy Way; Texana Deviled Eggs

establishments. A perfect portion of peppery cream gravy topped the Chicken-Fried Steak, which was propped on a helping of skin-on mashed potatoes. The comforting aroma wafts over the table, and just when you think you’ve taken your last bite, you stab your fork in for more.

A side order of Red Chile Cheese Enchiladas ($6) is served with a slow-cooked red sauce that was more sweet than spicy. Infused with honey, the sauce contrasted well with the accompanying spicy guacamole. Cheesy goodness oozed with each mouthful.

Cheesy Green Chile Grits are served with some of the dishes and exhibit the most inventive preparation of grits I’ve ever tasted. Creamy with just a hint of heat, they make a nice sidekick for some of Horseshoe’s TexMex offerings.

At the suggestion of the server, the meal concluded with an order of Buenealos, which is basically a crispy sopapilla topped with caramelized bananas, vanilla ice cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. It’s a simple dessert, and the cold ice cream playing against the warm bananas and sopapilla was heavenly.

Despite any bumps in the road Chef Spears has experienced in past restaurant endeavors, it appears that happy trails lie ahead with his winning formula in the Stockyards: An unpretentious atmosphere, friendly service and authentic cowboy cuisine for which Spears is best known.

soul With a side of jazz

One part jazz club and one part soul food

eatery, Buttons has earned a reputation over the past seven years for making patrons feel at home.

Walking into Buttons on any given night, it’s hard to miss the signature white beard and megawatt smile belonging to Chef Keith Hicks. Since his days at Ovation on Camp Bowie, Hicks has earned a reputation for being accessible and hands-on, a chef of the people who is as likely to offer his customers a good conversation as a good meal.

When Buttons first opened in Fort Worth in December 2008, it offered all of the elements that first drew patrons to Chef Hicks at Ovation—authentic soul food, exceptional live jazz and a lively cosmopolitan atmosphere designed for leisurely enjoyment late into the night.

Oxtails ($22) are delicious (the oxtails are only available on the weekend), but guests must try Buttons’ Famous Chicken & Waffles ($19) at least once. The handbattered chicken is flavorful, juicy and topped with fried shoestring sweet potatoes. Though not crispy, the Belgium waffles are delicate and sweet, served with a side of melted butter and warm blueberry syrup. Even if you aren’t a fan of collard greens, a side of garlicky, pork-infused collards is too delicious to skip.

location: 4701 West Fwy. (off of I-30, close to Hulen St.) for Info call: 817.735.4900 price range: $$-$$$

Another classic dish is the Shrimp, Fish & Grits ($19). A plate of hardy jalapeño cheese grits with just a hint of spice is served with two delicately fried catfish filets and (not enough) shrimp, and finished with a smoky, red eye gravy and over-easy egg. The egg is optional, but gives the dish more creaminess. Fried shrimp are an unusual choice, and I found mine to be a bit overcooked.

Hours: Sun.-Tues. 11 a.m. – 10 p.m., Wed.-Thurs. 11 a.m. – 12

a.m., Fri. 11 a.m. – 2 a.m., Sat. 12 p.m. – 2 a.m.

What We like: Open until 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, Buttons is a great late-night option. For anyone who enjoys live jazz music, this is one of the best picks in the Metroplex.

The vibe at Buttons is reminiscent of a ‘70s jazz club, and its design feels cozy and welcoming. The menu is a mix of Southern comfort and traditional soul food, with plenty of fried seafood and slow-cooked dishes. For a starter, Buttons’ decadent Fried Green Tomatoes ($10) have been a favorite of mine since it opened. Plated like a Southern Benedict, thick tomato slices are dusted in cornmeal and fried to perfection, then topped with thin slices of grilled ham, red eye gravy and béarnaise plus one over-easy egg. It’s finished with a cool spring mix salad to balance the smoky-spicy flavors underneath.

What We don’t like: The beer and wine list is pretty limited, and we found the atmosphere too subdued and the food and service a little uneven on a Monday night. our recommendation: The Sunday jazz brunch is a wonderful way to try several of the restaurant’s signature items in one trip. Plan on showing up early to get prime seating and definitely leave room for a cup of gumbo.

For dessert, the Raspberry & White Chocolate Bread Pudding ($7) was outstanding. The buttery pudding is tender, not soggy, and topped with a just-sweet-enough Chambord sauce and vanilla ice cream.

Although the restaurant offers daily lunch specials as well as $10 signature entrees on Mondays, for the best Buttons’ experience, first-time guests should opt to dine on a night when live music is scheduled. One of the most popular events is Sunday jazz brunch, with live music starting at 1 p.m. The buffet is extensive and includes an omelet bar and more than a dozen breakfast and lunch items.

The Old School Pot Roast ($18) and

Buttons consistently offers its patrons and Fort Worth the quintessential flavors and hospitality of the South, with a side of soul.

Buttons' Famous Chicken & Waffles

Right on ‘Cue

Tasty rubs made in Texas

Living in a divided household regarding barbecue preference, my husband swears by Kansas City joints where he grew up giving his patronage, such as Arthur Bryant’s and Joe’s Kansas City. In the name of research, I’ve partaken of the famous burnt ends and ribs, but I have to say that I still prefer my Texas ‘cue. It’s less about the sauce and more about the meat. These Texas-made rubs come from the professionals and will enhance just about anything destined for the smoker.

John Henry’s Smokey Bourbon Rub

John Henry was influenced by his experiences at summer picnics and county fairs with great barbecue during his upbringing in East Texas. For those who love good bourbon and a smoky aroma, the Smokey Bourbon Rub fits the bill. Perfect for pork, poultry or fish, the main ingredients include sugar, salt, brown sugar, paprika, natural smoke flavoring, garlic powder, onion powder and lemon juice.

Suckle Busters Texas GunPowder

Not for the faint of heart, Suckle Busters Texas GunPowder packs a powerful jalapeño punch. Its spicy-sweet flavor is good on most meats as well as on Tex-Mex favorites and chili. The only ingredient for this

rub, ranked at 5,000 Scoville units (the scale for spicy heat), is ground jalapeño powder. Caution advised.

Angelo’s Beef Bar-B-Que Seasoning

Fans of the legendary Angelo’s in Fort Worth can attempt to get the same great flavors at home. In 1958 Angelo George created a dry rub with a unique blend of spices and herbs. The Beef Bar-B-Que Seasoning is hearty and works well with no basting needed in meat preparation. It works perfectly on briskets, but may be used on any other cut of beef.

Stubb’s Bar-B-Q Spice Rub

C.B. Stubblefield, known simply as Stubb, is famous for his sauces, marinades and rubs.

At the urging of friends, Stubb started bottling his creations using jam jars and whiskey bottles corked with jalapeños. Stubb crafted this rub at his original Texas Bar-B-Q joint in Lubbock, Texas and continues serving his creations at the famous Austin location. The concoction includes sea salt, paprika, garlic, ground turmeric, natural smoke flavor and black pepper.

Texas Rib Rangers Rosemary and Herb Rub

Texas Rib Rangers, out of Denton, has won more than 500 major awards and competitions since its creation in 1993. Among its products of sauces and rubs is the Rosemary and Herb Rub that is perfect on pork. This innovative blend of sugar, salt, garlic, onion, basil, rosemary, oregano, crushed red pepper, turmeric, marjoram and bay leaves is the ideal complement to ribs, but it tastes great on just about anything.

Kent Rathbun

Elements Family

Barbecue Rub

Local restaurant creator, “Iron Chef America” winner and James Beard-nominated chef Kent Rathbun has made it possible for home cooks to bring his signature blend of flavors to their kitchens. While Rathbun is a Kansas City native, that won’t be held against him. His Barbeque Rub is great for the purist because of its classic flavors.

Method for Meat

• Choose your favorite liquid (Coke, Dr. Pepper, beer, fruit juice, Worcestershire sauce, etc.) and apply ½ cup to help stick the rub to the meat.

• Apply your rub of choice liberally. • Cook the meat in a smoker, pit or oven at a low temperature over several hours.

Each month we will present our readers with an obscure detail shot from somewhere in fort worth, courtesy of photographer brian luenser. We will provide the clues, and you will have the opportunity to guess where the shot was taken at fwtx.com/articles/where-january-16. The following month we will include the full photo as well as a new obscure detail shot. Here are this month’s clues:

1. The building was built in 1927.

2. The best view is from the side.

3. Many people don’t know that the establishment is named after the original owner, not a foreign city.

Waguih Guirguis makes no bones about it: He is one meticulous man. The owner of two local jewelry stores, Guirguis takes great pains to procure and present a product lineup of the utmost quality. So it just makes sense that Guirguis extends that same due diligence to his automotive purchases.

Mickie Ferrel, a U.S. Air Force vet, has been hooked on driving the Mercedes-Benz ever since she bought her first car, a 1982 230CE Coupe. A car enthusiast and loyal customer since 2007, Mickie returns to Park Place Motorcars Fort Worth because of its “unique customer service ethics.” She says, “My relationship with the dealership is important to me because of a special bond—they care about you as well as your car purchase.”

“I’m very picky, and I look for that same attention to service and detail in my car-buying experience,” Guirguis said. “That’s why the only dealership I’ll buy my cars from is Park Place Motorcars Grapevine.”

you need from a car and truly are one of the best vehicles made.”

and 2011 E350 Coupe, she says, “I missed my SUV so I purchased the ML350 BlueTEC® Diesel.” Mickie feels it’s the best car to date for her family because she added almost every feature available, including panorama sunroof, designo brown leather massaging seats, and Alcantara black suede interior.

Guirguis drives the S-Class for business during the week and switches over to the seven-seat GL on the weekends, when family time takes center stage. “It’s got plenty of room for passengers and is so comfortable for long road trips,” Guirguis said. “Plus it’s very safe, which gives me peace of mind.”

The crown jewels currently parked in his garage include a Mercedes-Benz S-Class and a GL. “I like the Mercedes-Benz for the comfort, safety and prestige,” he said. “They have all the options

Mickie’s most recent purchase, a 2014 Mercedes-Benz ML350 BlueTEC ® , a luxury SUV with Mercedes-Benzs outstanding diesel V6, won first place in her first Mercedes-Benz Club car show. After owning a 2007 and 2011 SLK55 AMG®, 2008 ML320 SUV, 2010 E63 AMG®,

“I chose Park Place Fort Worth,” she says, “because of the warm professional attitude from the moment I walked in from General Manager George Johnson, his administrative assistant, Peggy Priddy, my energetic salesman, Jon Bui, and my detail guy, Israel Torres. They all are exceptional people!”

What also gives him peace of mind is the honesty and integrity he experiences when working with Park Place. “I always know that I’m going to be treated fairly,” Guirguis said. “Whatever they tell me, I trust them. I know they’re always going to give me an honest deal.”
